Anybody know if Mozilla Thunderbird has a killfile option?

Works for us too

Yep. Rightclick on an offensive from line and choose "Create filter
from message" in the dropdown. That brings up the kilfile interface.
You can filter on subject lines or email addresses. Choosing "contains"
gives you the option to match multiple email addresses with one filter.

You can also get to it through Tools...message filters. I wish it were
a bit more powerful, for example, you can't filter on cross-posting.
However, it gets rid of most of the junk once you've collected enough
email addresses.
